If a card drawn in error is disclosed at the time it is dealt, the card shall be governed by the provisions of (h) below.(h) If a card dealt in error is disclosed and cannot be used by the Dominant Player or the Banker pursuant to (e), (f), or (g) above, the dealer shall perform the procedure in (h)1 through 3 below that has been pre-selected by the casino licensee in its rules of the game submission.1. The disclosed card and an additional number of cards equal to the value of the disclosed card shall be drawn face upwards from the shoe and placed in the discard bucket; provided, however, that if a 10, jack, queen, or king is disclosed in error, the disclosed card and either one or 10 additional cards, as pre-selected by the casino licensee, shall be drawn face upwards from the shoe and placed in the discard bucket.2. The disclosed card and one additional card drawn face downwards from the shoe shall be placed in the discard bucket without disclosing the additional card.3. The disclosed card shall be used as the first card of a simulated round of play in which no wagers shall be accepted, the cards shall be dealt in accordance with this subchapter and the cards shall be discarded upon completion of the dealing procedures.(i) If the Banker, subsequent to the initial deal, draws a card from the shoe for his or her hand after the Dominant Player has said "Card" and the dealer has repeated "Card," the Banker must give such card to the Dominant Player and thereafter either draw or not draw a third card for his or her hand as may be required by this subchapter.(j) Any card found turned face upwards in the shoe shall not be used in the game and shall be placed in the discard bucket, along with an additional number of cards, drawn face upwards, equal to the value of the card found face upwards in the shoe. The last hand of a shoe shall be void when a card of that hand is found face upwards in the shoe.(k) If there are found to be insufficient cards in the shoe to complete a hand when the cutting card is drawn, that hand shall be void.
